Hollinger's scounting report of the hypothetical starting five

KYLE LOWRY:

+ Tough, aggressive guard who pressures the ball and defends. Loves taking charges.
+ Likes to push the tempo but can get out of control. Improved outside shooter.
+ Good athlete who draws fouls. On the short side. Excellent rebounder for size.

DEMAR DEROZAN:

+ One-dimensional scorer who can get to the rim and draw fouls. Midrange shooter.
+ Great leaper, finisher. Ball hog with iffy handle, passes only as last resort.
+ Decent defensive tools but focus an issue. Struggles to guard big 3s.

LANDRY FIELDS:

+ Big shooting guard with outstanding nose for rebounding. Quick leaper.
+ Poor shooter, but smart player with good feel for off-ball cuts.
+ Average athlete and defender. Never fouls. Rarely attacks offensively.
